Description
Gathering useful data during propulsion testing is integral to developing premier on-orbit engines. As a
Test & DAQ Engineer, you'll have the opportunity to design & build innovative systems, sometimes from scratch, that will enable rapid engine testing and capturing the data that goes with it.
Our engineers are responsible for the life-cycle of their products; development, build, testing, and operations.
Responsibilities
- Design, develop and build test platforms for engine testing
- Develop code that enables test execution across multiple environments: hardware-in-the-loop (HITL, HIL) and virtualized hardware simulations
- Invent tools that enable more frequent and reliable software deployment, test execution, and data analysis as part of a continuous integration and release system
- Analyze test results and identify bugs that require in-depth investigations with engineers across the organization
- Work closely with hardware & software engineers to provide a reliable, fast, accurate and easy-to-use integrated test platform
- Hands-on integration and troubleshooting of propulsion test stands
Minimum Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, math, or STEM discipline; or 2+ years of professional experience in test systems, software or hardware development in lieu of a degree.
- Development experience in Python, LabView, NI Test Stand or NI Veristand
